Amy Winehouse has brain damage? Get out!

Remember when Amy Winehouse went to the hospital in July for a “reaction to her anti-drug medication“? Turns out Amy really smoked her face off for 36 hours straight which leads doctors to believe she’s now permanently brain damaged. The Sun:

MEDICS are worried Amy’s brain was damaged by the cannabis overdose – she displayed symptoms normally associated with schizophrenia.
The pal yesterday said: “The future is bleak, bleak, bleak. Mitch does everything he can to protect his daughter – but his ‘explanation’ for Amy’s hospital dash in July was just simply untrue. She had smoked an inhuman amount of hash which resulted in acute cannabis poisoning. You have to take a s***load of pot to suffer that severe a reaction.”

I love how it takes a team of doctors to deduce Amy Winehouse has brain damage. I could’ve told you that and I can’t even make my own coffee. No, seriously, last time I tried to brew a pot – BOOM! – 9/11. True story.

Thanks to James who reminds everyone to stay in school. That’s where they sell the good shit.

this is ridiculous bullshit. it is quite well known and factually established that there simply is no such thing as ‘acute cannabis poisoning’. this has never happened in human history, and it did not occur to Amy Winehouse. this is just one example of how the British press is actually even worse at times than the American press.

so to summarize – you cannot ‘poison’ yourself with “too much hash”, and you can’t give yourself ‘brain damage’ by smoking a lot of it at one sitting. whoever is saying this crap has no idea what they are talking about.
